3. GENERATOR FUEL SYSTEM
The Fuel System installed in your Intrepid includes a permanently installed 258 Gallon aluminum
tank and a fuel distribution system that meets your Engine Manufacturer’s flow specifications and
all current regulations in effect at the time of assembly of your boat.
Fuel for the generator is drawn from the main 258-gallon tank by the generator fuel pump through
the fuel pickup on the tank surface. An Anti-siphon valve has been installed at the pickup. From
the anti-siphon valve fuel is drawn through the fuel shut-off valve and into the fuel filter/water
separator. From the filter fuel is drawn to the generator by its fuel pump.
The fuel pickups for the engines are located on the after part of the tank surface and are accessible
through the round deck access plate under the helm seat. Plumbed to each pickup is an Anti-siphon
valve, which does not allow fuel to siphon from the tank if a fuel hose becomes disconnected between
the tank and engine.
GENERATOR FUEL
PICK UP
The Fuel Filter/Water Separator is located in the Aft Centerline Bilge area and is accessible for
service through the compartment’s deck hatch. A Fuel Filter is supplied for each engine.
The Fuel filter is a spin-on type and should be replaced on a scheduled maintenance program.
